Xu Hei had seen this part of the seabed before, just a day ago.
So, had he teleported back again?
They say the cultivation star is a sphere, and if you keep moving forward, you'll eventually return. But could it be that all life on this Sea Star has perished?
"I must have landed in a forbidden area or within a formation, temporarily trapped and unable to leave," Xu Hei thought to himself.
The Divine Puppet Sect knew little about the Sea Star, limited by the erasure of history from that ti, leaving scant related information.
Getting hold of a map was already quite an achievent for Xu Hei.
Moreover, it was a map from 350,000 years ago. With the changes in mountains and seas over ti, whether things remained the sa was questionable.
"Let's assu this is a forbidden area. I'll divide it into grids and explore each one, finding the edge of the forbidden area," Xu Hei mused.
He focused on the underwater terrain, imprinting it in his mind, then moved to the side.
Xu Hei spent three days exploring this sea area.
It was a circular sea area!
Xu Hei couldn't leave; any attempt to do so would automatically shift his direction.
It was like a loop; whether moving forward, backward, left, or right, he would return to the starting point.
"So, what if I head toward the center?"
Xu Hei stared ahead, stepping toward the central area.
Step by step, Xu Hei moved very slowly, constantly observing the underwater markers with his Divine Sense, wary of making a wrong move.
During this process, the Night Demon Wings were always unfurled to prevent being discovered.
Finally, Xu Hei arrived at an unfamiliar place.
The color of the sea surface deepened, turning pitch black. From the seawater, Xu Hei sensed a strong will pollution, reminiscent of the heavy oil he had seen before.
Only this pollution was countless tis worse than heavy oil.
Even Elental Infant cultivators would face certain death if they encountered it.
"Heavy oil?"
Xu Hei frowned and continued forward.
This ti, it didn't take long for Xu Hei to reach the center of the circle.
Here, Xu Hei saw an ancient pyramid standing on the seabed, with an altar at its peak.
The mont he saw the pyramid, Xu Hei's pupils contracted, and he exclaid in shock, "Sea God Altar?"
A storm surged in Xu Hei's heart, his shock indescribable.
Indeed!
The pyramid before him was identical to the Sea God Altar of the East Sea!
Such a coincidence was impossible; could this have been left by the Sea God? Why was there such a mysterious altar on the Sea Star?
More bizarrely, there was heavy oil here, the very thing extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons needed!
Various doubts filled his mind, leaving Xu Hei unable to think. It took a long ti for him to calm down and continue forward.
Even if it was the Sea God Altar, so what? Xu Hei was no longer the sa; he was a Divine Transformation cultivator, with the laws of heaven and the Demon God Cauldron at his side.
At worst, he could hide in the Demon God Cauldron.
This emboldened Xu Hei.
Cautiously advancing, Xu Hei reached the edge of the pyramid. Its design matched the Sea God Altar, but it had an additional statue.
It was a statue of a snake biting its own tail.
"A snake biting its own tail?"
Xu Hei pondered.
Could this be related to the external loop?
While Xu Hei was thinking, he seed to sense sothing and quickly deployed the Night Demon Wings to hide himself.
Behind him, a graceful figure approached—a beautiful woman in a light gauze dress, with an ethereal and untainted aura, like a fairy descending to the mortal world.
The woman also stared at the pyramid, her eyes showing surprise.
"Death God Deity?"
She gazed at the snake sculpture, instinctively wanting to kneel but stopped herself.
"Deity?" Xu Hei caught this keyword.
In his mory, deities were a ans for Sea Star people to gain power, similar to borrowing power from immortals.
Rumor had it that the Sea Star had seven deities, representing seven cultivation systems.
For example, the Water God of the rman Clan was one of the seven deities, the most common and easiest to gain power from. Over eighty percent of the rman Clan cultivators primarily practiced the Water God.
The other six deities were the Thunder God, Earth God, Death God, Sky God, Desire God, and Ice God.
Their teleportation array's power was borrowed from the Sky God.
"This is actually the Death God's deity? The Death God looks like this?"
Xu Hei squinted at the snake.
But in his impression, Sea Star people revered deities. Why didn't this woman kneel upon seeing a deity? Moreover, why did she look nothing like the Sea Star Demon Clan?
"Could it be... she's also from the Divine Continent Star?"
A thought crossed Xu Hei's mind.
The woman happened to be trapped in the sa place as him, and her attire was distinctly from the Divine Continent Star, making him think in that direction.
As for how long the woman had been here, whether she had just arrived like him or had been trapped for countless years, Xu Hei didn't know.
However, she might also be a Sea Star person sent to capture him.
To be cautious, Xu Hei didn't reveal himself and withdrew his Divine Sense, not even probing the woman's cultivation.
Suddenly, Yu Shiyu stopped and laughed gently, "Why hide, fellow Daoist? Co out!"
Xu Hei's expression changed.
She discovered him?
Xu Hei used the Ever-changing Fish and Dragon technique to transform into the appearance of a Sea Star rman Clan mber and erged from the darkness, asking Yu Shiyu, "How did you find ?"
Xu Hei didn't reveal his true appearance, unwilling to expose his origins to anyone, even if the other person seed like a compatriot.
Yu Shiyu glanced at Xu Hei and laughed, "I guessed."
"Guessed?" Xu Hei's eyes widened.
"I sensed soone nearby and just tried my luck, and it worked," Yu Shiyu covered her mouth and laughed lightly, "Fellow Daoist, you're quite easy to fool."
"..." Xu Hei was silent.
Who the hell would have thought that in such a godforsaken place, soone would try to trick him?
Did this place look like it had anyone?
Xu Hei imdiately put on a stern face and said, "You're not a local, are you? I guess you're from the Divine Continent Star! Speak! What's your purpose here?"
Xu Hei swiftly turned the tables.
Yu Shiyu laughed, "Yes! I was teleported here, but I'm a lofty Divine Transformation stage cultivator. What can a re Elental Infant like you do to ?"
Xu Hei had suppressed his cultivation to the Great Perfection of the Elental Infant stage because a Divine Transformation stage rman Clan mber would be renowned and easily recognized, so he suppressed his cultivation.
This allowed him to deceive the heavens and cross the sea.
Yu Shiyu stared at Xu Hei, then suddenly sneered, and the pressure of her Spiritual Power descended like a millstone, crushing toward Xu Hei.
"Spare , senior!" Xu Hei cried out urgently.
